Dual Diagnosis Rehab Services - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Highland Mills, NY.

A dual diagnosis is a diagnosis of a co-occurring addiction and mental health disorder. This could be an occurrence of both a drug and alcohol addiction along with a bipolar or anxiety disorder, or a gambling addiction combined with clinical depression. It may be several things all co-occurring simultaneously, with particular disorders making other issues worse or even triggering them. For example, someone's alcoholism might be stimulated by their need to self-medicate because of their anxiety or depression. A person might be struggling with depression because of their drug or alcohol use. It takes a team of specialists to ascertain the causes of each of the issues the person is struggling with and work out a treatment strategy that will successfully resolve both concurrently so that the person can lead a sober and psychologically healthy lifestyle.

This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in Highland Mills comes in. Having the person receive drug treatment at one facility and having to also receive help from a mental health specialist at a different facility is not ideal. The most successful dual diagnosis drug recovery programs can work on both co-occurring disorders in one facility and at the same time. Long term inpatient treatment is best for individuals with more advanced addictions and mental health disorders, because these clients excel in a setting where they are fully immersed and where there are no time limits on their rehabilitation.
